Latest results from lattice QCD for the Roper resonance

Abstract

The present status of the Roper resonance in lattice QCD is reviewed. Some of the latest lattice results are discussed with particular emphasis on a large systematic error stemming from the finite size effect. These results suggest that the Roper resonance can be described by the simple three quark excitation of sizable extent.
